Live poker advice and tips

scotty77

Hi there guys and gals

I used to play tonnes of live poker, and have only recently started playing live again in the past 2/3 months (mainly cash but also the odd tournie too).

I know that we hvae some guys on here with years of live poker experience, so just want to know if you hvae any advice to give to a born-again newbie to the game?

One tip that I have is to try and just focus on your cards and stare at the felt, for some reason my thought process goes a bit weird when I try to do a 'Rounders' and look for my opponents 'Oreo' moment haha.

I've never played live. I think my biggest problem would be trying to keep track of the pot size, especially when there's been loads of action. I guess it's something live players get used to? (adding up the pot as the calls/raises come in).

So simple online when it's displayed for you! lol

its ok, hard to keep an exact track but when I'm in the hand I just do it street by street

I.E 7 callers PF times 12 = 84 etc

no one ever folds live and you should go to your local card room to witness how big the pots get with total junk its so much fun,
